Reference numeral 1 expression in the accompanying drawing is formed on the tyre surface tread, and four major troughs in the figure of the circumferential extension of tire, Reference numeral 2a~2e divides to be formed at major trough 1 each other, and at the outermost tire shoulder major trough 1 of tread width direction and the grounding parts between the tyre surface lateral margin, Reference numeral 3 is tyre surface tire shoulder portions, Reference numeral 4 is to be communicated with the sidepiece separately of fetus face, and radius vector is the sidewall portion of side's extension inwardly, Reference numeral 5a~5c is respectively formed on grounding parts 2b~2d, and extend, and along each cros-rib tread groove that circumferentially this grounding parts 2b~2d is demarcated of tire along the Width of this grounding parts 2b~2d.
At this, so-called " tyre surface tread ", be meant mounting of tyre on the wheel rim that is suitable for, and under the state of the air pressure that is filled with regulation, with this tire with the vertical position rest configuration on flat board, and when applying with the corresponding load of quality stipulated to this tire, tire and the dull and stereotyped face that contacts.
In this case, so-called " wheel rim that is suitable for ", be meant size according to tire, by the wheel rim of following prescribed by standard, so-called " air pressure of regulation " is meant in following standard, corresponding with the maximum load ability and the regulation air pressure, so-called maximum load ability is meant and tire is allowed the quality of the maximum that applies in following standard.In addition, so-called " quality of regulation " is meant above-mentioned maximum load ability.
In addition, said here air also can replace with non-active gas or other gases such as nitrogen.
In addition, so-called standard, be meant at the regional actv. industrial standard of producing or use tire, for example be " the YEAR BOOK of THE TIRE AND RIM ASSOCIATIONINC. " in the U.S., being " the STANDARDS MANUAL of THE European Tyre and RimTechnical Organisation " in Europe, is Japanese car tire association " JATMA YEAR BOOK " in Japan.
In above-mentioned grounding parts 2a~2e, from cros-rib tread groove 5a, the 5c of grounding parts 2b, the 2d of the Width outermost end secondary series of tire, its groove depth is constant, and have the bottom land that extends with the outside face almost parallel ground of grounding parts, being provided with in the end of tire shoulder side and making bottom land is that d and the length on the Width of grounding parts 2b, 2d are protruding bottom 5a ', the 5c ' of e towards the height of grounding parts 2b, 2d surface elevation.
In addition, Reference numeral 6 is tire sipes of being located at the tire shoulder side edge part of grounding parts 2b, 2d.This tire sipe 6 is configured with interval t, make this grounding parts 2b, 2d tire shoulder side 1/3 the zone Width rigidity along tire circumferentially evenly.
The inevitable second bar shaped corrugated irregular wear that is produced in the air-inflation tyre of the tread contour with bar shaped pattern type is produced by following situation: the initial stage that is beginning to travel, on the second bar shaped decorative pattern, produce toe and heel wearing and tearing, afterwards, wearing and tearing develop into the side of entering into from the side of pedaling out of tire shoulder side, and then develop into reverse wearing and tearing, in order to suppress the second bar shaped corrugated irregular wear, eliminating toe and heel worn-down starting point is special actv., as its method, at the grounding parts 2b of secondary series, the last setting of 2d has protruding bottom 5a ', the cros-rib tread groove 5a of 5c ', 5c.
If the height d of protruding bottom 5a ', 5c ' is low, then can't improve the rigidity at this position fully, can't embody the effect of bringing by protruding bottom is set, so the bump height of protruding bottom 5a ', 5c ' is preferably 60~100% the scope of the groove depth h of cros-rib tread groove.
In addition, if length e protruding bottom, the grounding parts Width is short, then the rigidity of protruding bottom is low excessively, might produce the crack at this, on the other hand, on the contrary under the long situation of this length e, the marginal element of extending along the Width of tire becomes very few, can't avoid the reduction of wetland performance, thus the length e of protruding bottom be preferably grounding parts 5a, 5c width W 15~25%.

When the bar number of above-mentioned major trough is four, the width of preferred this grounding parts 2b, 2d is 1.0~1.1 times of width of grounding parts 2c that are positioned at the Width central portion (on the equatorial plane) of tire, and the width that is positioned at grounding parts 2a, the 2e of tire width direction outermost end is 1.2~1.4 times of the width of the grounding parts 2c that is positioned at Width central portion (on the equatorial plane).
Its reason is, the input of the side force of the Width outermost end of tire is bigger than the input of Width central portion side force, so the width of grounding parts 2a, the 2e of the Width outermost end of tire is the wideest, next order by the grounding parts 2c of this grounding parts 2b, 2d, central portion in turn is provided with width, can make each grounding parts rate of wear even.
Fig. 4 is the part sectional view of the Width of the local expansion drawing of tread contour of expression another embodiment of the present invention and tire.
At this, be formed with four major troughs 1 that extend continuously along circumferential linearly at the tyre surface tread, between above-mentioned major trough and between the outermost tire shoulder major trough 1 and tyre surface lateral margin E in the tread width direction, master plan is told the grounding parts 2a~2e of five row, at the 2c of center-point earth portion, along circumferentially be separated with the compartment of terrain form many in the drawings to the upper right side to extend steppedly, and cross the ladder cros-rib tread groove 5b of the 2c of this center-point earth portion fully, in addition, at each 2b of middle ground portion that is positioned at center-point earth portion 2c adjacent position, 2d, form many bending cros-rib tread groove 5a along circumferentially being separated with the compartment of terrain, 5c, these many bending cros- rib tread groove 5a, 5c is at this central authorities' major trough 1 opening, from this opening part to upper right or all linearly extensions in angle of inclination to left down circumferentially to equate with respect to tyre surface, and, near zone from outermost tire shoulder major trough 1, the groove edge of tire shoulder major trough 1 for example, once be bent into roughly " ヘ word shape " with the width in 50~70% the scope of middle ground portion width W, and to this tire shoulder major trough 1 opening.
At this, angle of inclination dogleg section 9, circumferential with respect to tyre surface of each bending cros-rib tread groove 5a, the 5c that forms at each 2b of middle ground portion, 2d can also be made as mutual different angle except all being made as the identical angle like that as shown.And, be each bending cros- rib tread groove 5a, 5c in the drawings in place bending, also can be with each bending cros- rib tread groove 5a, 5c in the bending of a plurality of positions.In addition, Reference numeral 10 expression is made of the square protrusion of the bottom land that is formed on central major trough 1 among the figure, prevent that stone from embedding the stone release portion of usefulness.
And, at this, in the tire shoulder major trough one side part of each bending cros- rib tread groove 5a, 5c, form the protruding bottom 11 make the bottom land protuberance and to form, tilt angle theta line of centers, circumferential with respect to tyre surface that makes each protruding bottom 11 or this each protruding bottom 11 is in 70~90 ° the scope.
At this bending cros- rib tread groove 5a, 5c can prevent the irregular wear of tire shoulder side end, and, can guarantee the length of cros-rib tread groove and make tire have excellent wetland performance, in addition, bending cros-rib tread groove 5a, the above-mentioned tilt angle theta of 5c has been guaranteed the cros-rib tread groove significantly, the Width of tire and circumferential marginal element, realize excellent wetland performance, in addition, in order to prevent by cros- rib tread groove 5a, 5c is at grounding parts 2b, formation becomes the acute angle corner portions of the core of irregular wear easily in the 2d, at this above-mentioned tilt angle theta is selected in 70~90 ° scope.
Even increase the tilt angle theta of cros-rib tread groove,, just can guarantee θ=70~90 ° as long as bending part is set by mode with the core that do not form irregular wear.
Promptly, the angle of inclination circumferential with respect to tyre surface of protruding bottom 11 is in 70~90 ° the scope, by further raising bending cros- rib tread groove 5a, 5c, between the cros-rib tread groove of the opening portion of tire shoulder major trough 1 rigidity of part, thereby can further prevent from effectively partly to produce bar shaped corrugated irregular wear at this grounding parts.
This angle of inclination less than 70 ° situation under, can't be with bending cros-rib tread groove 5a, the rigidity of the acute angle corner portions of the grounding parts of the opening portion of 5c is brought up to desired degree, and carry out irregular wear as core with this acute angle corner portions, so at bending cros-rib tread groove 5a, protruding bottom 11 is set on the 5c, seek the uniformization of the Width rigidity of grounding parts part, in addition, with cros-rib tread groove 5a, the open end portion of 5c produces bar shaped corrugated irregular wear as core, even in the bump height of protruding bottom 11 is under 100% the situation of cros-rib tread groove depth, also because protruding bottom weares and teares gradually through using, so can produce bar shaped corrugated irregular wear equally.
This protruding bottom 11 also as described above, as the cross-sectional view of the illustrative middle ground 2b of portion of Fig. 5,2d, the Width of preferred this grounding parts 2b, 2d, size e is in 15~25% the scope of width W of the 2b of middle ground portion, 2d, and in 60~100% the scope of the groove depth h of rake 9 protruding bottom 11, that from the bump height d of bottom land be bending cros- rib tread groove 5a, 5c.
And in this tire, edge portion in tire shoulder major trough 1 side of the 2b of middle ground portion, 2d, set many tire sipe 6 that broad ways is extended with the posture of extending, the mode that in this grounding parts, stops to the Width of grounding parts 2b, 2d, the Width rigidity that this tire sipe of many 6 makes zone this grounding parts 2b, 2d, tire shoulder side 1/3 tyre surface week upwards evenly.
Setting at interval also as described above of the tire sipe 6 of this situation, particularly at the bending cros-rib tread groove 5a that is applied to be provided with protruding bottom 11, under the situation of 5c, if uniformly-spaced to form tire sipe 6, grounding parts 2b then, the Width rigidity of 2d is at bending cros- rib tread groove 5a, 5c's, part diminishes near the open end of tire shoulder major trough 1 opening, on tyre surface Zhou Fangxiang, become inhomogeneous, so about the bending cros-rib tread groove Width rigidity of portion part indirectly, can be based on above-mentioned (formula 1), obtain from the rigidity of tire shoulder major trough 1 side in 1/3 scope of the width of this grounding parts part, by so that this Width rigidity is determined bending cros-rib tread groove portion's Width rigidity partly indirectly at the interval that the uniform mode that makes progress in tyre surface week is set tire sipe.
In addition, in position shown in Figure 4, except the edge portion of central major trough 1 side of the 2b of middle ground portion, 2d, also form the short size tire sipe 13,14 that extends along the grounding parts Width respectively in two edge portions of center-point earth portion 5, these tire sipes 13,14 are in the present invention not necessarily.
But, as shown in Figure 4, divide on the tyre surface tread by four major troughs 1 in the tire of grounding parts 2a~2e that five row are arranged, also as described above, the width of the preferred 2b of middle ground portion, 2d is in 1.0~1.1 times the scope of width of the 2c of center-point earth portion, and the width that is divided in outermost tire shoulder grounding parts 2a, the 2e of tread width direction is in 1.2~1.4 times the scope of width of the 2c of center-point earth portion.
In addition, preferably, in the tread width direction cross section of tire shoulder major trough 1, as Fig. 6 with as illustrated in the amplification view, the grounding parts near surface of the cell wall 1a of the 2b of middle ground portion, 2d side part is with respect to the angle α of the 2b of middle ground portion, 2d normal to a surface n direction, than the cell wall 1a of the 2b of middle ground portion, 2d side partly to compare the radially inner side part of more close radially inner side little with respect to the angle β of the 2b of middle ground portion, 2d normal to a surface n direction with the grounding parts near surface.
Thus, near rigidity part tire shoulder major trough 1 of the 2b of middle ground portion, 2d is reduced, this part easy deformation when loading of tire rotates, part is is roughly worn and torn equably along the circumferential integral body of tire near making this, can be suppressed near this part thus more effectively and produce bar shaped corrugated irregular wear.
But, make that cell wall 1a's play grounding parts near surface part p in 25~30% the scope of depth D of tire shoulder major trough 1 with respect to the angle of grounding parts normal n from the grounding parts surface, different with the inside side's side part in footpath of cell wall 1a with respect to the inside side's side in the close footpath of this grounding parts near surface part p, preferred grounding parts near surface part p with respect to this angle α of grounding parts normal n less than the angle β of the inside side's side part in its footpath with respect to grounding parts normal n, more preferably grounding parts near surface part p is 0~7 ° with respect to the angle α of grounding parts normal n, and the inside side's side part in its footpath is 10~20 ° with respect to the angle β of grounding parts normal n.
Like this, by making above-mentioned angle α, grounding parts near surface part p and the footpath inside side side part of this grounding parts near surface part p of β in 25~30% scope of the depth D that plays the tire shoulder major trough from the grounding parts surface is different, the inside side's side in footpath at this grounding parts near surface part p partly increases under the situation of angle, utilize the reduction of the rigidity of grounding parts part, can tackle effectively at worn-down initial stage grounding parts near surface and produce toe and heel wearing and tearing.
